The only show that EC and the Attractions did in North America. Includes early versions of the "Trust" songs.

I think your post is missing some words. I am pretty sure that EC and the Attractions did other shows in North America.

no soul...i believe he is correct. i remember wanting to go SO BAD because there were NO OTHER DATES near NYC in 1980!!

The post does not say "only show in 1980." It just says "only show."

The words I thought were missing were "in 1980" or something like that.

aw come on Bobby Boy...we knew THAT part!!!

[sulky lad]

Do you mean to say you didn't go in 1980, BA !!
I missed out in 1980 too, now that UK tour would have been a magnificent one to follow - I just wish there were more shows circulating from then

How did WV get the rights to sell the flacs for this show which is a soundboard and not a King Biscuit broadcast? I think his management should investigate.

[Ymaginatif]

Wolfgang's charging for this?


In my book, there's a difference between bootlegs and piracy --- and wolfgang belongs to the latter category.

But ba, that's lossy! Wouldn't you rather drop the $ for flacs?

[bronxapostle]

lossy schmossy! sounds good enough to me....better than the boot i have already i imagine. and NO i would NOT rather spend the $$$. i gotta save up $350 to get the super duper deluxe autographed box set exclusive 10" whammer jammer of THE REVOLVER TOUR!!!!

I don't know... but if you do buy it, use the code FABWV for 10% off.

I agree.

CBC Pre-FM reel-to-reel tapes went up on ebay today:

It would be great if EC snagged them, asserted ownership, and released the show on his website.

I dubbed the soundboard audio onto the VHS footage I have and uploaded it on YouTube. Kind of cool to watch, actually. It also made me think of that song by the immortal band Styx - "Too Much Time On My Hands"...

[krm]

great work

[Ulster Boy]

The audio on these videos is great, much better than on the boot I have - where's it from?

Fantastic! The drum sound really comes through great. I especially like Secondary Modern and You'll Never be a Man!
